EDITORS COMMENTS
Sunday school children and their circus theme joined carnival time in Holmfirth as churches in the parish combined to provide a procession of floats. Brightly decked floats from church groups at Holy Trinity Church, Holmfirth, St Andrews Church, Thongsbridge and Choppards church paraded from Thongsbridge to the center of the township, led by Paddock Youth Band. In this print captured on 1st June 1985 during the vibrant 1980s era, we witness a delightful scene filled with joyous children immersed in the spirit of celebration. Dressed up in colorful costumes and adorned with face paint, these young participants embody pure excitement as they take part in this annual carnival held for a noble cause. The atmosphere is alive with laughter and anticipation as stalls selling sweets, cakes, books line the streets alongside sideshows offering games and entertainment for all ages. The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the announcement of winners from a children's art competition who were presented with well-deserved prizes. This heartwarming event not only brought together families and communities but also aimed to raise funds for general maintenance at local churches. This remarkable photograph captures an enchanting moment frozen in time - a testament to the unity and camaraderie that thrived within Holmfirth during this memorable occasion.
